from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. An endospore is a dormant, tough, non-reproductive structure produced by a small number of bacteria from the Firmicute family. The primary function of most endospores is to ensure the survival of a bacterium through periods of environmental stress. They are therefore resistant to ultraviolet and gamma radiation, desiccation, lysozyme, temperature, starvation, and chemical disinfectants.
Endospores are generally considered the most resistant living structures known. Endospores are able to resist desiccation (which just means drying), extreme heat and cold, radiation, chemical reactions, acids, and the effects of long periods of time, as illustrated by the endospores found in the bee belly.
